Another reclamation project? CB Cook will reportedly visit 49ers

After trading for two disappointing high-end draft picks in Gabbert and Martin on Tuesday, the 49ers have their sights on another: Cook, a Vikings cornerback selected No. 34 overall in 2010, will pay a free-agent visit to the team Thursday, the Sacramento Bee reported.

Last year, Cook, 27, who doesn’t have an interception in 29 career starts with Minnesota, allowed nine touchdowns in coverage, tied for the most in the league, according to Pro Football Focus. In addition, quarterbacks had a 140.3 rating when throwing in his direction, the highest rating allowed among the 102 cornerbacks who played at least 400 snaps.

Cook does have good size (6-2, 212 pounds) and general manager Trent Baalke, who prizes arm length, is well aware that Cook’s levers measured a healthy 32 ½ inches at the 2010 combine.

The 49ers made a habit of acquiring first- or second-round picks who have failed to fully measure up to their lofty draft status, even before dealing for Gabbert (No. 10 pick, 2011) and Martin (No. 42, 2012).

The 49ers will host Cook two days after they released Rogers, a starter since 2011, in a cost-cutting move. Their other starting cornerback for most of the past three seasons, Tarell Brown, is an unrestricted free agent.
